I brought this product a couple weeks ago. I like the fit and style. Only issue I have is the clarity and sound. Product needs noise cancelation

Great "in-earbuds" that aren't in-ear 🤔
on April 12, 2024
Posted by: omghax
I really prefer in-earbuds to headphones, but even after I got some foam tips for better comfort - my ears still get "swamp ear" and get irritated after long use. I finally decided to see if there was a better solution and stumbled upon these Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, which seemed like they could be the answer.
After about a week or so of using them, I have been pleasantly surprised at how well they perform. They are by far the weirdest pair of earbuds I have ever owned, and I was considering buying the Sony LinkBuds but I was really hoping for something different like bone conduction rather than in the ear (which seem to be my main problem).
I also was hoping that I'd be able to wear them for longer than my in-ear pair, which definitely is the case. Comparatively I'd have to take my in-ears out every so often to clean my ears as with these the only issue is my ear tends to get a tad irritated after long-use but it also could just be my ears getting used to something being there, hard to say right now until I've had them for longer but I just adjust them slightly up or down when I feel discomfort.
I actually got these as my "gaming" earbuds, which after turning off "Immersion Mode" and using "Stereo Mode" I feel it's best unless you're listening to music it's just too bassy for regular stuff in my humble opinion (still sounds great, YMMV). Battery life has been a lot better than my other pair of earbuds which would die after ~4-6 hours, so far the lowest I've gotten these have been around 40%. I'm also not too sure how fast they charge, since they live on my desk and I charge them overnight but when I first charged them it took about half hour to fully charge from ~60%.
It's a bit difficult to figure out what the optimal spot is for these earbuds to perform their best, I believe for me at least when they're at their lowest on/in your ear it seems to be the best. I'll randomly check that they're evenly pushed into my ears and not falling out from time to time, but generally they're pretty snug fit that don't move much once on.
As far as "noise cancellation" or "passive hearing" goes, they do a pretty good job at blocking out sound when turned up I generally have mine around 60% at that's loud enough for me - I can still hear around me, if need be which I like not having to take off my earbuds in between sessions to multitask. There was a recent firmware update that adds auto-volume, which increases the volume in louder environments which is kind of "noise cancellation" in its simplest form. You're also able to control the earbuds pretty well with just the button on either earbud, play, pause, skip track, reverse track, toggle immersive mode or you can customize the shortcut which is nice. I have left as cycle thru still/motion/off immersion, and right as toggle immersion but there's also "switch devices" and "access your voice assistant" as options.
I look forward to future updates and possibly v2 of this product if it performs well, a great niche product for an oversaturated market. I would recommend trying these out if you're at all interested, the price is a bit hard to swallow but they may become your favorite pair of earbuds 🫠

I always hated earbuds because they hurt my ears and was happy to see this product. Of course, the sound quality is excellent as you expect from any Bose product. Bonus: I read that it can be used with other Bose Smartspeakers. Planning to use it with my Soundbar to watch TV.

Wonderful buds!

I bought these about two weeks ago, and so far, I’m enjoying wearing them while I work, exercise, and relax. They are comfortable around the ears, like they are not even there. However, I do get a little irritated with the lapses in sound some times or skip through my podcasts without reason. I wish the shortcuts were easier to remember, but that’s my fault.

Amazing earbuds for all ears!

These earbuds are phenomenal for what they're intended to do. Setup out the box is quite simple with the Bose app and pairing. Getting the hang of putting the earbuds in your ears is also very easy after a couple tries. The sound is superb for what their intended usage is. These are open earbuds so there's no noise canceling, it's meant to have you listen to your music in good quality while being aware of your surroundings. This results in also a comfortable fit where you don't need an earbud tip shoved into your ear. The charging case holds enough charge where I don't need to worry about it when I leave my house. I recently went on a trip to another state and had the battery last me the whole trip granted I had moderate usage. The app Bose has developed for their wearables is also very easy and simple. I can tune the earbuds, update them, and turn features on and off on the fly. It reminds me of most wearable apps that make everything easy for you to use. Customizing sound is the best part about the app because you can fine tune it to your liking with many presets available to you as well. I definitely recommend this product to anyone if it's within their budget!
